Miami-based Puerto Rican pianist Jose Negroni’s last disc Piano/Bass/Drums was a grammy nominee. Here, his son joins him on drums. The disc stacks up, taking you through a variety of tempos and genres from post-bop to latin jazz. The tracks are a great length for radio, and have a great variety and eclecticism the WYCE audience will love.McCOY TYNER
